76 cm (30˝ ) from furthest protruding edge on side of barbecue.
76 cm (30˝ ) from furthest protruding edge on back of barbecue.
See Drawing A
Always keep the area around this barbecue clean and clear of any and all combustible
materials such as gasoline or other inflammable liquids, paper or oily rags.
Do not operate this barbecue under any overhanging or unprotected construction.
Remember this barbecue is for outdoor use only and is not for use on any boat or
recreational vehicle.
Use this barbecue outdoors in a well-ventilated area and at least
3 m (10’) from any dwelling or other building.
Do not use in garages, or any other enclosed area.
Do not leave your barbecue unattended while in operation.
Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air to the barbecue.
Do not use while under the influence of drugs or alcohol.
Do not store any spare L.P. (propane) cylinders, full or empty,

L.P. GAS CYLINDER
Self-contained
Propane Gas System
The self-contained (propane) gas system barbecue is designed to be used with only a 9.1 kg
(20 lb) propane cylinder equipped with a type-1 cylinder valve. This barbecue cannot be
connected to an existing #510 P.O.L. type valve cylinder (which has left-handed threads).
Do not connect to a propane gas cylinder exceeding 9.1 kg capacity or use a cylinder
with any other type of cylinder valve connection device.
The Type-1 valve can easily be recognized by the large external thread on the outside of the
valve. Older existing valves do not have this outer external thread. Any attempt to connect
a regulator to any connector other than the mating Type-1 connector (which comes with a
large, black coupling nut such as the #510 P.O.L.) could result in fires, injuries or property
damage, and could reduce the effectiveness of the important safety features built into the
Type-1 system. Also connecting the #510 P.O.L. fitting to the cylinder will negate the flow
control and the temperature shut-off features built into the new Type-1 connection system.
The cylinder should not exceed 472 mm (18 1/2˝ ) in height and
317 mm (12 1/2˝ ) in diameter.
When purchasing a cylinder for your barbecue, it must be constructed and marked as
meeting the specifications of:
Canada: Transport Canada.
LP-gas supply cylinder to be used must be constructed and marked and marked in accordance
with the specifications for LP-gas cylinders of the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) or
the National Standard of Canada, CAN/CSA-B339, Cylinders Spheres and Tubes for the
Transportation of Dangerous Goods.
Minimum clearance of 76 cm (30”)
on both sides and back of the barbeque.
2
FILLING
THE CYLINDER
The cylinder must be filled prior to use and must have the air purged. For safety, follow
these instructions when having your cylinder filled:
Have only your local qualified LP gas dealer fill or repair a cylinder.
Do not overfill the cylinder beyond the safe 80% fill level.
Make sure the dealer tests and checks the cylinder for leaks after filling.
WARNING
If the above instructions are not completely adhered to,
it could cause a fire/explosion, resulting in death or serious Injury,
or property damage.
The Cylinder must also be equipped with:
A shut-off valve with a correct cylinder valve outlet as specified in current standards.
Canada: CAN/ CGA 1.6g-M97 Outdoor Gas Grilles.
a) A safety relief valve with direct connection to the vapour space of the cylinder.
b) A collar to protect the tank shut-off valve.
c) A device for vapour withdrawal.
d) A ring on the bottom to secure the tank to its support assembly.
Always turn off the cylinder valve completely when the barbecue is not in use.
Always handle the tank valve with utmost care.
Never connect an unregulated L.P. gas cylinder to the barbecue.
Always keep the cylinder, in use, securely fastened in an upright position.
Never store a spare cylinder, empty or full,
near or under the barbecue when in operation.
Never expose the cylinders to direct sunlight or excessive heat.
Never insert any kind of object into the valve outlet as this may damage the backcheck;
a backcheck that is damaged can leak, and a leaking propane cylinder can result in fires
or explosions, property damage, severe injuries or death.
TRANSPORTATION
AND STORAGE
OF CYLINDER
The propane cylinder is totally safe when handled properly, but if misused, the result could
be an explosion or fire resulting in serious personal injury and /or property damage.
To Avoid Unnecessary Risks
Always recap the cylinder with cap provided when not connected to the barbecue.
Do not store the cylinder in any enclosed area such as a garage, and make sure the
storage area has lots of ventilation.
Do not store the cylinder near any appliances, or in any areas that may become hot,
such as the trunk of a vehicle.
Make sure the cylinder is out of reach of children.
When transporting or storing the cylinder, make sure it is in an upright position and
not on its side.
Do not smoke around the cylinder, especially when transporting it in a vehicle.
3
HOSE AND
REGULATOR
Propane Gas Models: Your barbecue is designed to operate on L.P. (Propane) gas at a
pressure of 2.74 Kpa (11˝ water column). A regulator preset to this pressure is supplied
with the barbecue and must be used.
This regulator is equipped with the Type-1 quick-closing connecting system, which incor-
porates these safety features:
Will not allow gas to flow until a positive seal has been made.
Has a thermal component that will automatically shut off
the flow of gas between 115–150ºC (240–300ºF).
Has a flow limiting feature, which will restrict the flow of gas
to 10 cubic feet/ hour.
Should the large, black thermal-sensitive coupling nut be exposed to any extreme temper-
atures above 115ºC it will soften and allow the regulator probe to disengage from the
valve, and will shut off the gas. Should this occur, do not try to reconnect the nut; instead
replace the whole regulator assembly with a new one (see the attached parts listing for
details). The regulator probe also contains a flow-sensitive feature, which limits the flow of
gas to 10 cubic feet/ hour, in the event of a regulator malfunction or hose leak. If the flow
control feature is activated, the cause of this excessive gas flow should be investigated and
corrected before using the barbecue again.
Note: Improperly lighting the barbecue can activate the flow control feature,
resulting in lower heat output. If this occurs, the re-flow feature must be reset by
turning all the burner controls and the cylinder valve off. Wait at least 30 seconds
before slowly turning on the cylinder valve, and then after another 5 seconds turn
the burner valve on and light the barbecue.
Never connect this barbecue to an unregulated propane gas supply, or to another kind
of gas. Do not alter or change the hose or regulator in any way.
Visually inspect the whole hose assembly before each use for evidence of wear or
damage such as cracks, burns, or cuts. If any damage is found, replace the
assembly before using the barbecue. Use only the recommended replacement hose.
To avoid possible damage to the hose, do not allow any grease or other hot materials
to fall on the hose, and make sure the hose does not contact any hot surfaces of
the barbecue.
The connection fitting must be protected when it’s disconnected from the cylinder.
Do not allow the fitting to bump or drag on the ground as nicks and scratches could
help create a leak when connecting back to the cylinder.
It is important to do the “Leak Test” procedure every time a cylinder is refilled,
or any of the components are changed, and especially at the beginning of a
new season.
Information on connecting Natural Gas Models is located at the end of the manual.
LEAK TESTING Perform a “Leak Test”
Before lighting your barbecue for the first time.
Every time the cylinder is refilled, or any component is replaced.
At least once every year, preferably at the start of the season.
The “Leak Test” must be done outdoors, away from heat, open flames and flammable liquids.
Do not smoke while performing the test. Use only a mixture of 50/50 liquid soap and water
for leak testing. Never use a match or open flame.

WARNING
Natural Hazards
Insects and Spiders
During shipment or storage, it’s possible that small insects like spiders could
find their way into the Venturi tubes and nest or make webs. This could block
the flow of gas through the Venturi tube causing a smoky yellowish flame, or
prevent a burner from lighting. It could even cause the gas to burn outside the
Venturi tube, which could seriously damage your barbecue. If these occur, turn
off the gas flow and wait for the barbecue to cool down. When the barbecue
has cooled, remove the burner and clean out the Venturi tubes with a brush or
pipe cleaner. Replace the burner and ensure that the Venturi tubes are seated
over the orifice located on the gas valves. Cleaning the Venturi tubes should be
conducted periodically, especially at the start of the season.
Note: Damage resulting from blocked Venturi tubes is not covered under
the warranty.

LIGHTING
THE GRILL
Make sure you have followed all the checks, procedures and instructions
indicated in the prior sections before attempting to light the grill.
Always raise the barbecue lid before lighting the burner.
Do not bend directly over the barbecue while lighting in case of back flash.
Making sure all the control knobs are off, slowly and carefully open the propane gas
cylinder valve. Wait about five seconds before opening the burner valve and lighting
the barbecue. This procedure allows the pressure to stabilize, and prevents the
flow control feature from activating. Note: If the flow control feature does activate,
turn off the burner control valve and the cylinder valve, wait about 30 seconds then
turn on the cylinder valve slowly. Wait 5 seconds and turn on the burner valve and
light the barbecue.
Lighting the Main Burner
Important: Light centre burner/burners first!
Once burner is lit the burner next to it will light by turning the control knob to “HIGH”.
Never light the outside burners unless the centre burner / burners are lit.
Using the Igniter to Light the Burner
Raise the lid of the barbecue.
Turn on tank.
Push in and turn the control knob to “HIGH” position.
Push the igniter button until a clicking noise is heard (a spark is being applied).
If the burner does not light after three attempts, turn the control knob
to the “OFF” position and wait for the gas to clear (about 5 minutes).
Repeat the previous lighting procedure.
If the burner still does not light, refer to the troubleshooting guide for help,
or light with a long match with extension match holder provided.
Manual Lighting Procedure
The barbecue has a small hole on the lower left side of the housing. This hole is towards
the front of the barbecue and is used to manually light the barbecue.
Raise the lid of the barbecue.
Place the lighted match with a match holder, or extension rod provided,
through the hole to within 1.6cm (1/2”) of the burner.
Turn on tank.
Push in and turn the burner knob to the “HIGH” position. At this point,
the burner should light, if it doesn’t after 5 seconds, turn the control knob
back to the “OFF” position and wait for the gas to clear.
Wait 5 minutes, and then repeat the manual light procedure. If after three tries the
burner still does not light, review the troubleshooting guide for help.
To Reset the Gas Regulator Safety Device
Close the LP (propane) tank valve.
Turn all burner control knobs to the “OFF” position.
Disconnect the regulator from the LP tank.
Open grill lid. Wait five minutes for gas to clear.
Re-connect the regulator to the LP tank. Test for leaks.
With lid open, turn the centre burner control knob to the “HIGH”
position and then ignite the grill by pushing the igniter button.
Close the grill lid.
Wait for 10 to 15 minutes. The barbecue should become hot.

Lighting the Second Burner
Turn the second control knob on the main control panel to the
“HIGH” position. The unlit burner will automatically ignite.
Lighting the Side Burner
Use the push-button igniter on the main control panel and the right control knob on the
side burner panel.
Push in and turn the right control knob to the “HIGH” position.
Push the igniter button until a loud click is heard, which is the
spark being formed. Repeat several times if the burner does not light.
If the burner does not light after several tries, turn the right
control knob off and wait 5 minutes for the gas to clear.
Repeat the above instructions. If the side burner still does not light,
refer to the troubleshooting section for help or light the burner manually.
Note: The side burner is designed to accept a maximum weight of 20 lb. Do not overload
the side burner.
Lighting the Side Burner with a Match
Place match in front ring of provided match holder.
Place a lighted match through the hole to within 16 cm (1/2˝) of the side burner.
Push in and turn the burner knob to the “HIGH” position. At this point,
the burner should light, if it doesn’t after 5 seconds, turn the control knob
back to the “OFF” position and wait for the gas to clear.
Wait 5 minutes, and then repeat the manual lighting procedure. If after three
tries the burner still does not light, review the troubleshooting guide for help.
Shutting Down the Barbecue After Use
Turn off the gas cylinder valve.
Turn the burner control valve to the “OFF” position.
This sequence is important as it prevents residual gas from being left in the system under
pressure and will make the next use easier.
Visually Check Burner Flame
Take off the grates and heat shield. Light burners. Adjust the flame by turning the knobs from
“HIGH” to “LOW”. The flames will be smaller when the knobs are in the “LOW” position.
Always check flame prior to each use. Perform flame check for side burner.
WARNING

ROTISSERIE BURNER
IGNITER LIGHTING
Guide to Rotisserie Cooking
Rotisserie cooking produces foods that are moist and flavourful. Most commonly used for
cooking meat or poultry, the rotisserie is designed to cook food slowly. You can place a
cooking pan beneath the food to collect juices for basting and gravy. To flavour the contents
of the cooking pan you may add herbs, onions, or other spices of your choice.
Balancing the Food
In rotisserie cooking, balancing the food is of utmost importance. The rotisserie must turn
evenly or the stopping and starting action will cause the food to cook unevenly and possibly
burn the heavier side.
The easiest foods to balance are those of uniform shape and texture. To test if the food is
balanced correctly when secured, place the ends of the rotisserie spit loosely in the palms
of your hands. If there is no tendency to roll, give the spit a quarter turn. If it is still stable,
give it a final quarter turn. It should rest without turning in each of these positions. It can
then be attached to your grill.
Food Preparation
When preparing poultry, truss the birds tightly so that wings and drumsticks are close to
the body of the bird. The cavity of bird may be stuffed prior to this. Pull the neck skin down
and, using a small skewer, fix it to the back of the bird. Push the rotisserie spit through
lengthwise, catching bird in the fork of the wishbone. Centre the bird and tighten with the
holding forks. Test the balance as described before.
A rolled piece of meat requires the rotisserie skewer to be inserted through the centre of
the length of meat, then secured and balanced.
For meats that contain bones, it is best to secure the rotisserie skewer diagonally through
the meaty section. If protruding bones or wings brown too quickly, cover with pieces of foil.
TIPS ON USING
YOUR ROTISSERIE
8
Using for the First Time: Before cooking, turn on the grill and operate on “HIGH” for
about 10–15 minutes with the lid open. Close the lid and continue to run the grill on
“HIGH” for another few minutes. After this, your grill should be burned in and ready to use.
Preparation: The barbecue should be preheated before adding any food. This is done by
lighting the grill and running at “HIGH” for up to ten minutes with the lid down. If the food
you are cooking needs a lower temperature, turn the control knob to the required setting
before adding food.
Cooking Time: This is affected by many things and experience in grilling will help you. The
kind of food, the thickness of the food, and even the weather can have an effect on cooking
time. You will learn that on a hot day, a lower setting will work better and on a cold day a
higher setting may work better.
Flare-ups: Flare-ups can increase the temperature in the grill and add to the buildup of
grease, increasing the risk of a grease fire. Some flare-ups are normal to create smoke,
which helps add to the flavour of your food. To keep these flare-ups to the desire level, do
the following:
Always trim fat from steaks/red meats before grilling.
Cook chicken and pork on a lower setting.
Make sure the grease drain hole is clear and that the grease catcher is not filled.
Always cook with the lid down, and cook at the lowest efficient heat setting.
Note: With the lid down, you will keep a more consistent temperature inside the cooking
area and use less energy/gas.
How to Prevent Food From Sticking on the Cooking Grates
Marinating, or lightly oiling the food before placing it on the cooking grates,
will help prevent food from sticking onto the grate.
Food may stick if turned too soon after putting it on the cooking grates. Let food cook
for a few minutes before turning it, so that it will have time to properly sear.
TIPS ON USING
YOUR BARBECUE
WARNING
Do not leave your barbecue unattended, and watch out for children
around the barbecue. Make sure the barbecue is functioning safely
at all times. Do not move the barbecue while cooking. Make sure the
lava rocks are dry, because when wet they may breakup
due to the steam they generate.
9
This model has a 12’ hose with a male coupling plug that will allow you to attach your
barbecue to your residential gas line.
WE STRONGLY RECOMMEND CONTACTING A CERTIFIED GAS-TECHNICIAN TO
INSTALL YOUR NATURAL GAS UNIT.
Connecting to Gas Line
1. Pull back the outer sleeve located on the residential gas line (see illustration).
2. Insert the barbecue’s male coupling plug into the residential gas line’s coupling.
3. Push the male coupling plug in as far as possible, the outer sleeve will spring forward
locking the two together (see illustration).
Disconnecting From Gas Line
Pull back the outer sleeve located on the residential gas line and pull the barbecue’s
male coupling plug out.
Warning: Failure to follow all safety procedures could result in fire and explosion causing
property damage, serious personal injury or even death.
Consult the rating label on the back of the barbecue to confirm that it is set up to burn nat-
ural gas. If the retracting sleeve on the residential gas line does not fit the barbecue’s male
coupling plug, the retracting sleeve can be replaced. All gas supply plumbing must be car-
ried out by a qualified service agency. Modifications must be carried out in accordance with
provincial authorities, and in accordance with CAN /CGA 1-B149.1 & 2 installation code
requirements. A shut-off valve must be installed on the main line. Use a 3/8 or 1/2” gas line
rated at least 75,000 BTUs.
Before lighting for the first time, lighting for the first time each season, and after making
any adjustments, do the following:
Make sure all burner control knobs are in the “OFF” position.
Always connect the barbecue’s gas line to the residential gas line before opening
the shut-off valve.
Perform a “Leak Test”. This test must be performed outdoors, away from heat,
open flames and flammable liquids. Do not smoke while doing the test. Use only
a mixture of liquid soap and water. Use a spray bottle or brush to apply the
soapy solution to all the connection points. Check carefully for bubbles forming,
which is a sign of leaking gas. If you have a leaky connection, turn the gas off,
tighten the connections, turn the gas back on and retest. Do not use the barbecue
if any leaks cannot be stopped. If you can’t stop a leak, turn the gas off and get
assistance from a qualified service technician. Never use a match or open flame.
Natural Gas Supply Connection
Always disconnect the Grill and close its individual manual shutoff valve, when conducting
pressure tests of the gas supply piping system at pressures which exceed 1/2 psi (3.5kPa).
Always isolate the Grill from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual
manual shutoff valve when conducting pressure tests of the gas supply piping system
at pressures which are equal to or less than 1/2 psi (3.5kPa).
INFORMATION ON
NATURAL GAS MODEL
Attach the Natural Gas Hose (included with
your barbecue) to the grill. Tighten the female nut of
the hose onto the side burner valve using a wrench.
10
STORAGE When the outdoor cooking season is over and you’re going to store the unit for the winter,
please do the following:
After removing and cleaning the burner and grill (lightly oil
the grill after cleaning) wrap them in paper and store indoors.
The barbecue, after being covered, can be stored outdoors.
Do not store the L.P. cylinder in an enclosed area.
Remove igniter battery to avoid corrosion, if storing unit away
in the winter, or a prolonged period.
When the barbecue is not in use, the gas must be turned off at the cylinder valve. The bar-
becue and cylinder need to be stored outdoors, in well-ventilated area. Do not store the
barbecue in a garage or near heat. If there is a need for the barbecue to be stored indoors,
remove the cylinder. Continue to store the cylinder outside in the well-ventilated area and
make sure the cylinder’s safety cap is firmly threaded on the valve.
CLEANING
AND MAINTENANCE
To get many years of service out of your barbecue, perform the following procedures at
least once a year, especially at the start of a new season.
Grill: Apply a light coating of cooking oil to the grating to prevent food from sticking. After
each use, and after the barbecue has cooled down, scrub the grating with a non-abrasive
brush. Alternatively, you can wash the grating with a mild detergent or baking soda, but
do not use a commercial oven cleaner.
Burner and Venturi Tube: At a minimum of twice a year, it is important to remove the
burner and Venturi tube and clean them, making sure that all dirt and rust is removed. Use
a wire to clean out the hole in the Venturi tube. Make sure the bottom housing is clean and
all holes are clear. If the burner has been damaged or has rusted, replace it as soon as pos-
sible. If the burner is in good shape, reinstall it in the correct position. Also ensure that the
Venturi tube is centred over the valve outlet.
Purchase a barbecue cover to protect your investment.
Stainless steel surfaces should be cleaned with stainless steel appliance
spray cleaner, or a non-chlorine based cleaner (e.g. flat-top stove cleaner).
Do not use an abrasive sponge/brush on stainless steel, as it may scratch it.
Do not use oven cleaner anywhere on your barbecue.
